This one is a special! The recent release from @featherspin\_throws. The Osprey! This yoyo is really fun to throw! I don’t have too many smaller throws in my collection, but this one really surprised me! As someone used to a yoyo with a larger diameter, and a little more weight to it, this one feels really nice at the end of the string. After pairing it with my handmade yoyo string, the binds feel super satisfying, whippy, and the smaller size allows for a more powerful throw based on my personal experience. This one is truly one I’d recommend for any thrower to add to their collection. The over all design and aesthetics sticks true to the name Osprey. It’s got a mean look to it, with the color ways giving it some elegance. Over all10/10 I’d recommend it! #yoyo ![IMG_2253](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/b/d/8bd336b6401a6768b4e0203cb3a9c7099ac84f49.jpeg) ![IMG_2251](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/a/b/dab5cf5f257c15228d66272f8ed6280c5a5b3bf8.jpeg) ![IMG_2250](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/a/7/2a7f37ed6442834e82da6d3ebae53e759f3f766c.jpeg) ![IMG_2249](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/2/b/22ba5509b5d102bb529927b6160c7a22eca71a8f.jpeg) ![IMG_2246](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/6/1/8614bc3f51e17b38898e2890100106f1dccbbf7d.jpeg) ---

I have had the Anser for three weeks now and it’s only grown on me. This is a very comfortable organic profile with ski jumps. ![2397](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/6/1/a6189b9d6e469603ce1f6930454303399add7cce.jpeg) This is a unique mid-sized player. The weight distribution gives it a solid, stable presence on the string. If I had to describe it with one word, it would be: Balance ![2395](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/e/0/2e07cb189ec54e32346350bbe56da818d48ad3de.jpeg) It carries some heft but each movement feels deliberate, and the Anser compliments you for it. It’s a goose that doesn’t need to honk loudly to be noticed, it just glides. ![2396](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/f/4/6f47c866f93c65208292aac7602d5237da4cc41f.jpeg) I recommend ! ![2331](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/f/0/7f02ee6906e8517badfd00f485b6fb5ec8ef9df7.jpeg) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/featherspin-throws-the-news-branch/422624.md?page=7) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/featherspin-throws-the-news-branch/422624.md?page=9)
